Let's divide 493604 by 74
Let's see how many times 74 fits into 493604.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 74 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 74

Let's proceed to step 2:
74 goes into 49 0 times with a remainder of 49.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 49 and we're left with 49.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 49 and repeat the process: 493 / 74

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 493 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 49.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 444 from 493.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 496 / 74

Step 4:
74 can be fit into 496 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 66.0
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 444 from 496.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 520 / 74

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 74 fits into 520 7 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 667.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 518 from 520.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 24 / 74

On to step 6:
If we divide 24 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6670.0
Subtract 0 from 24 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 240 by 74, we get 3 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6670.3
Subtracting 222 from 240 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 180 by 74, we get 2 and a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6670.32
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 148 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 320 by 74, we get 4 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6670.324
If we take 296 away from 320, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 74 fits into 240 3 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6670.3243
If we subtract 222 from 240, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 180 by 74, we get 2 with a remainder of 32.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6670.32432
Subtract 148 from 180 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 320 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6670.324324
If we take 296 away from 320, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
240 divided by 74 is 3 with a remainder of 18.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6670.3243243
Subtract 222 from 240 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 14:
74 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6670.32432432
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 148 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 6670.32432432, with a leftover of 3.2e-08.
